Is it safe to use nicotine patches while on suboxone?

Yes it is safe, My doc says it is so helpful to take the Sub and quit smoking though I seem to smoke more now that I am taking it for the rest of my life. I think it is lame but if it keeps me out of pain, I won't have to go back to the Methadone. I think that it is very lame for sure, I want to also quit smoking, let me know how it goes for you, ok.. hope I was helpful and a quick response...

Thank you subuser31. I didn't use the patch yet. I feel nauseated when I smoke since I started the suboxone. (It took me a while to realize it was the cigarettes) I'm worried the patch may have an even greater effect.
